A belated welcome!

The welcome may be belated, but the cookies are still warm!  

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Castleandelephant. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! JarrahTree 10:15, 23 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Justlettersandnumbers. I noticed that you made one or more changes to an article, University for the Creative Arts, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Castleandelephant. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Vaughan Grylls, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:03, 14 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm JarrahTree. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. JarrahTree 09:28, 20 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your edits on Pavilion Books suggest that WP:OR is occuring as you are providing nothing that can be used for WP:V - usage of WP:RS will save your edit from being reverted, but if you ignore the message, you will be reverted. Wikipedia is WP:NOT a website to update - but something that requires some form of proof. Thanks. JarrahTree 09:30, 20 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Also as items in articles are for an online encyclopedia - not a website 'out of date' information is not necessarily 'removed' if there is adequate verification, as encyclopedia articles also have historic material for readers to have some context. JarrahTree 09:32, 20 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Williams College, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 16:58, 20 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hi Castleandelephant! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Williams College that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. rsjaffe 🗩 🖉 00:29, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
